i think you are working on a production environment?! please take trainings on solaris on how to do such things!

just for learning you need to read about the commands:

in solaris
- metastat
- metadetach
- metattach
- fortmat

in obp
- nvalias
- printenv
- boot

don't do "try and error" on a production environment!
